THE LOVING LAWGlVER.

The term Of Senator Jones, of Florida,
expired the third instant and the Legisla.
ture OF that State elected his successor.
But 1t appears from the San Francisco
Examiner the lover Senator wants to rep
resent his State again in the chamber of
the United Statas Senate. That journal
says: ut is reported that Senator Jones
Of Detroit, who formerly resided in the
alligator belt OF Florida, wishes to represent
that uncommonwealth again in the halls
OF legislation. To that end he is preparing
"a vindication Of his course" W. believe
Mr.. Jones is accused OF nothing else than
being in love with a Detroit girl. Precisely
how bad that is, it is impossible to deter
mine at this distance from Detroit without
the aid OF photography; but in any case,
should suppose that Mr.. Jones' vinJi-
cation would be easy enough on the ground
OF insanity-temporary, if he got the girl;
chronic, if he did not. Our recollection is
that he did not. If so, he is Individually
we'll fitted to represent the Feverglade State
at the National Capital, and his sallow
constituency ought to see to it that his flag
is still there. 1t appears, however, that
insanity dodge is not at ell popular
with him; he will conduct his defence on
another line, and carry the war into Africa
BY shifting the burden OF vindication to the
OF his accusers. It is promised
that the charges made by him will involve
statesmen of high standing" and be of
such a character as to "create a national
'ensation." The nature OF their black mis-. /
is left to inference. but from such /
language as that there can be but one
irawn: these abandoned wretches have
lad the abyssmal depravity to pass
Detroit and fall. in love with the
irls OF Kalamazoo"

WAR PROSPECTS,.

Judging from surface indications ther,
seems to be an immediate prospect of wal
between Austria and Russia. Russia hal
been making vigorous preparations for thu
invasion OF Bulgaria for months past. Mill
tary stores have been gathered near thu
frontier, and, in spite of strict Govern.
mental supervision OF the telegraph and
mails, there comes the ominous news of the
massing OF troops.
The insurrection in Bulgaria was insti.
gated by Russian agents to be used as a pre-.
text. This is shown by the announcement
OF the conflict through Russian sources two
days before it actually occurred.
That other powers will be drawn into the
maelstrom of w,r there is little doubt.
Turkish interests will be directly affected
and English interests seriously threatened.
1t seems settled that Austria, Italy and
Germany have formed an alliance which
partially pledges each to interpose in the
event of a very serious disaster to either.
the probabilities are decidedly
in favor of a conflict which will involve at
three or four, and perhaps five coun-

COLLECTING LICENSES,
Trouble With LaundrieS-Efect of the
New License Law.

Among the hardest customers with whom
the Collectors Office has to deal are the
Chinese laundries, of which there are about
twenty in the county and city. They are
assessed $50 a quarter hy the county, and
those in the city pay IS additional. Mr..
Haupt, the efficient deputy of both the
County and City Treasurers, has to
run after them all the time. No.
tices through the Post Office are simply
a waste of time as they never reach them.
His greatest trouble is to locate the re-
sponsible owner. When one of them opens
a laundry he pays his license and when it
expires he will swear he no longer owns it,
that he has sold it to his brother or
cousin or some other mythical person for
whom he ID running it. They are full of
subterfuges and will tell the most unblush-
ing falseho IDS to evade their taxes. Mr..
Haupt has to be on their trail con-
stantly in Walkerville, Meaderville, South
Butte and wherever else they are located.
All this extra work Mr.. Haupt undertakes
in the interests of the Offices in which he is
deputy and many a long tramp it has cost
him. It is not the business OF these Offices
to 60 after people for licenses; the law pro-
vides that every citizen who needs a
license must go to the Collectors Office and
get it. Since Mr.. Haupt's connection with
the Offices about twenty of them have been
hauled up and fined.
The impression in the Collectors office
is that the new gambling law will
be likely to increase the amount
OF gambling on Il legitimate basis.
There will be more faro houses and fair"
games opened under the protection afforded
by the new law.
The City ordinance concerning licenses
will be changed by the City Council to con-
form to the provisions OF the act OF. the
Legislature as soon as the law
is received. Under it the City can collect
$125 for it's share. The new hill will, it is
believed, reduce licenses Cd all legitimate
businesses.

TELL us at what time, shouts "Ichabod''

'Tell US at what time" shouts "~Ichabod'
in the Inter Mountain, ".when the Demo.
cratic House voted for a bill to restrict
Chinese immigration, that the toilers OF
our own race might find employment, and
thus support themselves and families in a
manner becoming American citizens" Life
ia to too short and time 900 precious to
permit The MINER to the politi-
cal education OF "Ichabod." If he does
not know that it was only by Democratic
votes the restriction measure became a
law, he is groveIling in inexcusable ignor-
ance. Probably he doesn't know that
President Arthur vetoed the first restric-
tive bill and that the second one was
passed only by the almost solid vote of
Democratic Congressman. And that the
hostility to the restrictive
measure lost California for Garfield.
.'Ichabod" has a great deal of political
history yet to learn. He ought not to air
his ign rance in print.

ALIEN LAND LAW.

Among the measures passed by the last
Congress is one introduced by Senator
Plumb, OF Kansas, known as the Alien
Land bill, and entitled "A bill to re-
strict the ownership Of lands in the Ter
ritories to American citizens" The bill
was evidently aimed at foreign syndicates
formed for the purpose of gobbling up
large quantities OF land in the Territories
for stock purposes. This is assumed
from the fact that the speeches of the
Kansas Senator, in advocacy of the
measure, contains no a~llusion whatever to
foreign investment OF capital in mining
property, the drift Of his argument being
to show the evil resulting from foreign
ownership of immense tracts of land in
the Territories.
1t is possible, however, that under a
strict construction of the law foreign CAPT.
talists would be shat out from investing
in mining properties in the Territories, but
we do not believe It. 1t is hardly possible
that a body OF intelligent men could be
found who would thus deliberately
stab one OF the vital interests
OF the West. We see moth
ing in the bill which prohibits foreign CAPT.
talists from incorporating under the laws
of Montana and purchasing and holding
real estate. But they cannot incorporate
under foreign laws and invest in lands in
the Territories. Neither can a person who
is not a citizen OF the United States, unless
the right is secured by existing treaties
with the power OF which he is a subject,
purchase and hold realty in the Territories.
If the law prohibits the investment of for
eign capital in mining properties, Senator
took a larger bite than he intended.
This is evident, as has been stated, from
his remarks in urging the passage OF his bill.
The following is the full text OF the bill AZ
in the Salt Lake Tribune of the 18th
inst. The words in italics are inserted to
complete the sense:
SECTION 1. That it shall be unlawful for
any person or persons not a citizen of the
States or for any corporation not
by or under the laws of the United
or of some State or Territory of the |
United States, to hereafter acquire, hold or |
real estate SO hereafter acquired or |
any interest therein in any of the Terrific
of the United States or in the District |
Of Columbia. except such as may be acquir-
ed by inheritance or in good faith in the or
binary course OF justice in the collection Of
debts hereafter created; provided, that the
of this section shall not apply
to cases in which the right to hold or dis
pose Of lands in the United Statesi is secured
BY existing treaties to the citizens OF, or
subjects OF foreign countries, which rights,
80 far rs they may exist by force of any
such treaty, shall continue t o exist 40 long ,
such treaties are in force and no longer.
Sec. g.. That no corporation or associa.
ton shall own more than twenty per cent
the stock which is or may be owned by
any person or persons, corporation or cor
